****Rough agenda:
a) Discuss Geoff's simulation results.
b) Review DVJ's alternative bridge-shaping
   proposal.
 
 
****Discussion on Geoff's simulations:

The slides were discussed in detail.

Michael suggested that these be forwarded to 802.1
for review. Some folks there are committed to tracking
our efforts, but never seem to have the time, so this
may serve as a wakeup call.

This took all but 10 minutes.

**** Discussion of DVJ's bridge pacing

An overview was provided.

DVJ noted that a slow rate that needs short latency
should claim a faster rate, but not seen all of the
negotiated rate.

Michael noted a specific equation was complex and
nearly incomprehensible.

DVJ promised to generate a revision, covering these
identified problems.

We agreed to cover DVJ's state machines in detail
at the next meeting.
